Surprise Breakfast (A Borrowed Blog)

Hi everybody, this is Chris, Leslie's husband. Since I don't have a blog of my own, I'm borrowing Leslie's. While Leslie does a great job taking care of us and making sure we've got dinner on the table, weekend breakfasts are my domain. I try to make breakfast for everybody at least once a weekend or on days that I don't have to be at work. Sometimes it's pancakes, sometimes it's waffles, sometimes it's cheesy eggs and breakfast sausage, but this time it's something much better.




You might ask yourself what could be better than bacon and pancakes. Well, it's bacon in pancakes. I saw a post over on GeekDad this week about the Great Bacon Odyssey, and I was inspired. How is it possible that I never thought of this on my own??




We have a magic word around this house, and it isn't please or thank you. It's bacon. Sometimes our kids can be fussy eaters, but include bacon and it's like magic. The consensus from the two short people??


Well, the plates were clear, and there weren't any bacon pancakes left at the end, so that should answer that. Will we make these again? Absolutely, but not often. I'm don't even want to know how bad these are for me.


I now return you to your regularly scheduled blogging...

    Sounds deelicious! I love Canadian pancake syrup on my bacon, too, so that would work just right! Not too often, though - I can feel my arteries clogging just thinking about it :-)

    Sounds pretty good. Bacon is kind of magical isn't it? Did you take the pictures too?

    Chris, What a great idea. I have never thought of it either. I will have to try it! Tonight we had my favorite summer treat...BLT's with tomatoes that we grew ourselves. Nice to meet you. Stephanie in Maryland

    Yummy! but have you tried chocolate?? I was making pancakes at our highschoolers school for breakfast recently and one of their LA's (Learning Advisors) came along and dropped bits of chocolate into my cooking mixture. Hmmmmm! Perhaps a two course breakfast, bacon pancakes followed by chocolate pancakes??

    Hi Chris! My husband is also the weekend breakfast concocter...Last week he made pancakes with sausage in them!!! I LOVE bacon and could eat an entire pound, but he's not a big fan so he probably wouldn't go for those, but we loved the sausage ones! Thanks for sharing!!

    What was Leslie's take on the pancakes?
